As I browsed the internet this past weekend, pretend shopping (you know, where you put things into an online cart but never actually buy it? hopefully I’m not alone in this activity?), I found myself drawn to Spring shoes that had a common link. Their printed heels…
What I love about a statement shoe like the ones above, is that they manage to straddle the line between wild and wearable. Meaning, there’s a way to work them into almost every Spring occasion. For a blind date, I love that this pair from Shoemint looks almost completely neutral until you turn around to reveal the snake skin heel. The perfect way to keep your date guessing. Pair them with a sporty black mini (somehow way cooler than the little black dress in the back of your closet) and a more modest blouse. For a gallery opening, these bold heels from Zara are like a modern day work of art. With a Klein blue mini and a silky abstract print blouse, all you need here is a pile of bangles and you’ve nailed contemporary cool. For a girly take on the trend, these Anthropologie color blocked heels would be just the thing for an afternoon bridal shower. Match them up with a cream lace skirt and slightly sheer collared blouse for a girly yet grown up look.
